380th post on this amazing blog. Blog gist will augur seeding. As blog tries to place teams by accurate parameters & teams who play with heart. Site called bracketaday.blogspot.com but not 1, but 4 brackets for march madness, nit, cbi & cit. Yet called bracketaday.blogspot.com due to technically 1 mm bracket daily plus other 3 tourneys I seed. Try my best to place teams by seeding (march madness & nit only) & location (march madness, nit, cbi & cit).
Today I will throw my hand in predicting how softball
tournament in D1 will go. I will pick each game result from regionals to
Womens CWS final. I have made sure to include upsets in my D1
tournament predictions so this is not something those who like to go
chalk will completely agree with & I also didn't give any reasons
for why a certain team will beat a certain team cuz I don't need to.
Have given in depth predictions for all games in this tournament of
softball & in future I or this blog will maybe thus then go give multiple
bracketology articles b4 both D1 baseball tournament & D1 softball
tournament ok.

Foreword
about non baseball program teams. I was intrigued to see how many such
teams were in this year's softball tournament, people. Here's the deal. I
am casual about non baseball program but softball program teams doing
well in D1 softball tourney but hate when non softball program but
baseball program teams do well in D1 baseball tourney. So teams such as
Vanderbilt Commodores or Gonzaga Bulldogs are teams I cheer against in D1
baseball tournament. I hate that because there's MLB & variety of
other minor pro leagues in baseball but few pro leagues in softball so a
school without softball isn't giving an opportunity to potential
softball players in their school to have 1 final end to their career.
Yep. Also this isn't a political opinion of mine but in my opinion, it's
misogynist to not give opportunities to female players to play a bat
& ball sport but give it to male players. So let's see how these
softball teams perform when play during tournament occurs. Some games
will be fun. Other games will be duds. But what matters is these student
athletes get the chance to enjoy a cool tourney. I enjoyed listing all
64 teams participating in tournament & guessing how they'll do.
About me calculating number of non baseball programs in softball
tournament: 5 non baseball programs are in softball tournament. That
is almost 11% of field.While it's not much, it still is something to
fathom. I will enjoy seeing these players smash balls in softball
tournament. I guess I'm done.
footnotes.
For my seeds, here's format to decipher them. I'll briefly explain. Going for march madness, each # corresponds to overall tournament seed. E.g., 1.-> 1 overall march madness seed. Going for nit, each # which is 16 & over corresponds to overall tournament seed but each Unseeded Team has no #s attached. E.g., 1. -> 1 overall nit seed while Unseeded Team doesn't -> any #. Going for cbi, each cbi # usually corresponds to teams with winning record at 2023 through 2024 season & will have lots Of teams at AAC, A 10, ACC, Big XII, Big East, Big 10, C USA, Mountain West, Pac 12 & SEC at college basketball. E.g., 4. would be team with fine winning record at conference alphabetically near top Of alphabet & 9. would be team with membership at conference alphabetically below above conferences. Going for basketball classic, each # usually corresponds to conference alphabetically. E.g., 5. would be team with best winning record remaining at conference alphabetically near top Of alphabet & 16. would be team with fine record at conference alphabetically below teams above it & there won't be any teams which come from AAC, A 10, ACC, Big XII, Big East, Big 10, C USA, Mountain West, Pac 12 & SEC because these conferences don't participate in basketball classic. Use footnotes when u're trying to decipher my seeding above. That's my tips. I followed the rules with regard to march madness & nit seeding & march madness, nit, cbi & basketball classic location. So be fine with reading my # lists for 4 tournaments at d1.
